GDP increased by 80 per cent between 1989 and 1997, measured by the 1986-based series, and a further 33 per cent between 1997 and 2005, measured by the new 1996-based series. This means that GDP altogether increased by a factor of 2.3 from 1990 to 2005. Growth slowed down to just over 4 per cent in 2006, but is expected to recover to between 6 and 7 per cent in 2007 and 2008.
